welsh Literary Knssrtainmens.

One of the most successful literary
entertainments ever given in our city
was the one given by our Welsh citi-
zens at 2:3O and 7:30 p. m. Monday,
in jays opera house, under the con-
ductorship of L. w. Lewis. Prizes
were awarded to the successful COM
petitors on essays, Rotations, poems,
vocal and instrumental music. Com
petitions had been received on all sub
jects, which shows the taste the Welsh
people have for literature, and the
strong hold they have to their old ma
tional institution, 1.-The Eisteddfod.
One of the pleasant features of the
evening meeting was the presentation
of purse of money to Mr.. T. II.
Lewis as slight acknowledgment Of
his services as an elder, trustee and
leader of the choir at the Welsh Pres
byterian church. The presentation
was made by Miss Daisy Hughes on
behalf Of the subscribers. The affair
was surprise to Mr.. Lewis inasmuch
as he was not aware that anything of
the kind had been prepared for him.
Mr.. Lewis acknowledged the gift in a
few appropriate remarks.
Time and space will not allow US to
give the names Of the parties who COM
peted, or who received the various
prizes. Suffice it to say that one and
all seemed in the best of humor, and
the time spent will be long remem-
bered by all present as one of the pleas

government of General Barillas for
having proclaimed dictatorship June
10, lately suffered a most humiliating
defeat. There we're two different fac
tions, one working from the eastern
department and the other from the
western, the former under the general
ship of Castano and the latter in charge
of several well-known military men Of
the republic. In a range of mountains
near the city of Guatemala few days
ago desperate battle was taught be-
tween tie federal and revolutionists
forces, the latter suffering almost
complete humiliation. The battle was
desperate and sanguinary from the
commencement, and lasted over three
hours, the field being strewn with the
dead. at the conclusion Castanos was
routed, and the other revolutionary
generals were captured and shot. This
ends one of the most bloody wars the
country has ever seen. The republic
now enjoys peace.

a STRANGE narrative introduces the
public of his native land to the notable
statute in full form by William Wet
more Story. This sculptor was born
at Salem, Mass, in 1919. When he
was about twenty, he says, going from
Boston to Cambridge by the old stage
line, he suddenly saw Christ sitting
with the driver on the outside seat.
He reached out his hand and touched
the Saviour's garment. At-the half
way house Christ alighted andpingled
with the common people. No one
seemed to be aware Of his presence but
the young artist. The visionary per-
sonage was in oriental garb, moving
with steady steps to and fro, but he
did not seem strange to the dreamer.
''For years." Mr.. Story said to q
friend, ''that apparition has haunted
me, and over and over again Ihave
tried to give form to that face and per-
son which saw as plainly as 1 see you
now" He wrought his dream at
length, and it is now in Rome, and is
described as an original and beautiful
conception.-Wm. 81. Ingersall, in The
American Magazine for December.

CAwkER,CIrY has a candidate for d,

CAwKER. CITY has q candidate for de-
partment commander Of the G. A. R.,
and the newspapers Of that place, in
order to boom him, have to confess
that Cawker City is not large enough
to hold a state encampment in. They
therefore have to support two booms in
order to obtain one. That is, they are
forced to boom the idea of permanent
location for the department eucamp-
ment, in order to ask support for their
candidate. The Cawker City man, we
believe, is the only one in the field
against our Col. Jack Feighan. AS for
the latter he needs no introduction to
the comrades of the state. No man in
Kansas has been more active or is bet
ter known in the G. A. r. circles. No
man has better military record, and
most assuredly, we do not fiatter our
townsman' and comrade when we state
that no man is more capable or worthy
of filling the honorable Office. So far
as Emporia is concerned, there is no
better located city in the state, nor one
more easily accessible from all sections.
Our hotel accommodations are of the
best, and in every way are we in good
shape to have the encampment year
from now, when Colonel Feighan is de-
partment commander.
